Western Philosophy Package 3

Product Description

Our expansive Western philosophy series consists of books for children in kindergarten all the way through the twelfth grade, taking students through the full history of the Western philosophical tradition, from the Presocratics to contemporary concerns.

The student books are stories or novels that cleverly draw children in and introduce them to various philosophers and their philosophies in creative and innovative ways. The books are engaging, gorgeously illustrated, and intellectually uplifting.

Each book is accompanied by a teacher manual or a guidebook that contains historical and philosophical background information about the philosophers and the events from the story, as well as an array of high-level discussion questions that will get kids thinking and debating long after the story is over.

The third set of three books is presented as a trilogy of novels that contain gorgeous, full-color works of art, including some renowned masterpieces. In these books, a group of middle school students enter the past through virtual reality simulations, where they engage with famous philosophers and scientists who are the heart of the Western intellectual tradition.
